WHISKY BEFORE BREAKFAST

Coins weren’t actually minted near The Mint Bar, but many
were in play during the heyday of gambling in the rear of the bar, in downtown
Sheridan. Cowboys and girls had been known to duck under the front door
on horseback. Teddy Roosevelt wrote of the “mad antics” he witnessed at the
Mint. Certainly, the chords and lyrics of the iconic fiddle tunehave been played
time and again in this classic Western destination.
